“Lauren was amazing. She was very easy to contact both before and during the stay. We have never left my dog ever. She comes with us on trips. However, this was my son's wedding and everyone was staying at an air b&b where there were no dogs allowed. I did not have to worry at all. Lauren sent updates including pictures every day. I am definitely going to call Lauren in the future. I highly recommend her to be your go to sitter.”
“Renee was great with our dogs. She came and visited before her first house sitting for us and the dogs acclimated to her quickly. When we got home we could tell our dogs were well taken care of. We will have her house sit again for us.”
“Terry was amazing with our pup! She let me know what they were up to each day, and sent so many photos. I know our dog was in such good hands, getting so much love while we were away. Definitely a repeat customer here!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was a kid, my home was my zoo. Based on this, I always had a soft spot for pets and took every chance to take care of friends and family pets. As I grew up, it became my hobby to volunteer in shelters and petsit. I currently am a mom of a Husky, a Shitzu, a cat, and a fish! I would be more than happy to be there for your pet and their needs. Bonus points: As a husky mom, I can be very active. As a cat mom, I know when to give space and let them nap! I work as a Bilingual tutor in a high school in the mornings. However, this summer I will be available 24/7 to attend to your pet's needs. When it comes to my home, I have a big backyard where your pet can have the freedom to run freely and two friendly dogs who are up to play 24/7, however, there's the option of opting for the company if your pet is not comfortable around other pets. When it comes to a client’s home, I'll ensure the safety of the pet and the house, reporting everything in detail and offering extended stay periods.
“Sara is amazing! She made me feel at ease within seconds of meeting her as she was immediately so good with our puppy. You can tell she is a professional & a gifted one at that. She kept us updated with many pictures and status updates. She is also extremely personable. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care German Shepherds, Labs, Weimaraner and mixed breeds. I currently care for my four rescue dogs ranging from 9 yrs to 3 yrs old. All were 5 months old except for my Weim, which we rescued at 1.5 yrs. Been around and cared for dogs since I was 12yrs old. I work from home on Fridays with a flexible schedule and off on weekends to allow me to give plenty of attention and exercise to your dog. I will follow the written instructions of your dog’s routine to make it a less stressful experience and hopefully and fun experience for your pup.
“Nastia was excellent! She had great questions during our meet and greet that showed me how contentious she is. She was a great communicator before and during the visit. She had a minor issue come up with my dogs and she immediately called me to discuss it. I was grateful that she reached out. The call and how she managed the issue made me really trust her judgement and professionalism. I’m so glad we found her and we will certainly use her again.”
“Jessica is amazing!!! She is VERY qualified especially with her vet tech expertise 😊 we all love her … attention, reliability, knowledgeable. She stayed at my house with two dogs and they loved her . She kept us updated with pictures of our pups . She is a 10 out of a 10!”
“Emily did a great job taking care of our 5 pets! They require some specialized care and she had no trouble doing everything we asked of her! She was also just super nice, left the house clean, and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”
“My wife and I were recently in a bind. We had booked travel to Italy, with the plan of having our parents house-sit for us while we were gone. Those plans fell through, and we first considered a kennel for our dog Brutus, and our two cats. The problem with that was firstly, it was super expensive and secondly we were going to be gone for nearly three weeks and didn't like the idea of Brutus being in a cage for so long. We stumbled upon Rover.com where we were lucky enough to find Tara. Although we were a little wary of someone we didn't know watching our beloved pets and watching our home, the first meeting with Tara really put us at ease. She explained her schedule, told us of her experience and even made recommendations on what to leave in case of emergencies. While we were out of the country Tara kept us in the loop of everything that was going on, even when our cat scratched the dog on the nose (aww.). She sent pictures regularly and was wonderful through the whole process. All of that and her prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a pet-sitter or house-sitter and will certainly use her the next time I go out of town!”

About: I grew up with 3 dogs, today both my sisters have a dog; a Golden Retriever & a German Shepard. I have watched and cared for both of them, as well as pet/house sitting for other family & friends. I also became a cat dad when I adopted a six year old cat three years ago! I just moved to CT so while I search for a job I decided to join Rover!! 6am-10pm 7 days a week I am available! I can be an early bird or a night owl & I love all animals! I can take your pet on a long run or a short walk and anything in between! Most of my experience is with bigger dog breeds like German Shepard, Golden Retriever, & Pit Bull. I have also cared for French Bull Dogs and other mixed dog breeds. I would love to work with any animals! My favorite part is learning how unique each animals is & getting to know their personalities!!
“I have two cats that get very upset when I'm away, but Emma took care of them like they were her own and they were two happy boys when I got back. So grateful for the care and thought she put into our boys and our home”
“Angelle house & hound sat for me for two nights. Knowing my pups are extremely shy with people, she spent the entire time "working with them". Despite themselves they started to warm up to and trust her. She was so sweet and respectful of my home. And her doggie report cards!! I almost did not want to do a review for fear she would get too many new bookings to want to sit my pups if needed! :))”

I do live in an apartment but have a walking trail just 7 minutes away that my pup loves. Plus the complex is pet and walk friendly.
“Kate, along with her daughter Allie, was fantastic! We took a 2-week vacation and left our pets in her very capable hands. She sent us daily updates, including Instagram Reels, of our pets. She also kept our place clean and ready for our return. I would recommend Kate 1000x for your pet-sitting needs. I don't plan on using anyone else! She's our gal!”

Kiera is fantastic! She is reliable and in tune with the dogs and owners needs. She is able to manage the care of an older dog on medications along with a younger puppy. She kept us updated on their day with photos and texts throughout her stay. We so enjoyed her care of the dogs!!! She is highly professional
Sara is amazing! She made me feel at ease within seconds of meeting her as she was immediately so good with our puppy. You can tell she is a professional & a gifted one at that. She kept us updated with many pictures and status updates. She is also extremely personable. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Terry was amazing! 🤩 We were a bit hesitant about finding a new sitter, but we truly lucked out with Terry. Even though we were only away on a short trip, she went above and beyond—sending us regular updates and adorable photos that gave us complete peace of mind. It was so reassuring to know that our dog, Toby, was not only well cared for but also genuinely loved. We would definitely trust Terry with Toby again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter!
Jessica is amazing!!! She is VERY qualified especially with her vet tech expertise 😊 we all love her … attention, reliability, knowledgeable. She stayed at my house with two dogs and they loved her . She kept us updated with pictures of our pups . She is a 10 out of a 10!
I wouldn’t hesitate to book Emma again. We returned to everything in perfect order; she went over and above with gardens to care for in hot weather. Pups were perfect, and again, with a blind senior dog, it was challenging. Plus she’s just a sweet, calm, low key gal. You can’t go wrong.
Heather is such a natural! She made my little guy feel so comfortable and at ease while I was out. I received updates and pics of a very happy and content dog actually having more fun than ever! Thanks Heather for making my little guy so happy…I’ll definitely be having you stay with him again!
Nadya was so wonderful! Both of our pets loved her and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her loving and excellent care. Our dog has separation anxiety and it's been difficult leaving him alone even for an hour or two without coming home to accidents on the carpet or him tearing something up. He did so great with Nadya, who gave him alot of love and cuddles, played with him and took him for a walk. When we came home he was happy and calm. We are so grateful to have found Nadya and can finally feel confident planning some time away from home for date nights or vacations! Highly recommend her services, she is the kindest and sweetest person and will truly love your pet!
They stayed and played with Luna plenty of time each day, sent us pictures and checked in each visit. They bought treats for her for when we got back and just did a great job. They really cared about Luna and enjoyed spending time with her. I would highly recommend and use their services again!
Cayton stayed with our three dogs again recently while we were away. Our kids were happy to see her when she arrived and settled in nicely. Cayton regularly texted pictures of them being fed, cuddling, and exploring outside. Having had Cayton dog sit before, we had every confidence that she would care for and protect our three. We highly recommend her.
Kyla was wonderful with our two cats, one of which needs daily medication. They both loved the level of attention, love, and care they received from her. For interactions with people Kyla was responsive, professional and sent cute photos/videos while we were away which helped us miss our fur-babies a little less. We would definitely rebook with her and recommend her to friends and family!
